Indiana Pacers coach Frank Vogel will coach the Eastern Conference All-Stars for the NBA All-Star Game on Feb. 16 at New Orleans Arena, the league announced Tuesday night.

The Pacers (30-7, .811) clinched the best record in the conference through games played Feb. 2, by virtue of their 116-92 win over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night.

Vogel, who won the league's coach of the month honors for games played in October/November, is in his fourth season with the Pacers. He was named interim head coach with 38 games remaining in the 2010-11 season, and had the interim tag lifted on July 6, 2011.

The West All-Star coach will be determined by the best record in the conference through games played on Sunday, Feb. 2. Miami’s Erik Spoelstra and San Antonio’s Gregg Popovich coached last year’s All-Star Game, making them ineligible for the honor this year.
